Monday

Rose at a gentle hour in my Shelbyville, IN hotel room, giving myself credit for having eaten a time zone yesterday. After processing a few emails, I hit the road around 10:15 (EDT) for the leafy Cincinnati suburb of Glendale, OH, venue of the fall meeting of the Forward Movement board. I'm proud to be associated with an organization whose motto is Inspire Disciples, Empower Evangelists. We met all afternoon, then, after dinner, enjoyed a trek to Graeter's Ice Cream, by which all Cincinnati denizens loyally swear.

About Me

I am the 11th Bishop of the Diocese of Springfield in the Episcopal Church. The diocese includes 60 of the 102 counties in Illinois, and stretches from Rantoul in the northeast to the St Louis suburbs in the southwest and the old river town of Cairo in the extreme south. There are 35 worshiping communities that vary widely in size and character. This blog is intended primarily as a record of my daily activities as bishop, and is meant primarily for "internal consumption," though anyone is welcome to stop in and look around. For more substantive reflections, see my personal blog, Confessions of a Carioca, or Covenant, the blog of the Living Church Foundation.
